Corgis- at least the 3 we have had, consecutively, are AMAZING little dogs. They are so friendly....SO friendly. You WILL be hard pressed to get them to stop nipping. The herding instinct also makes them inclined to chase small animals. We lost our second to DM....it was heartbreaking. We waited a few years and got another. We entertained Shelties, but in the end, the fairy mount is our breed.
We've had 3, all from the same breeder, and only 1 of them tried to herd us, and she stopped pretty quickly. They are fantastic dogs. I lost my Pixie on 9/1 to kidney failure after a vaccine reaction.
My wife and I were Corgi companions (NOTE: I DO NOT claim we were Corgi OWNERS) for 16 years. Bronwyn was a wonderful experience with a lot of quirks! But would I have another Corgi?
In a heartbeat! My ambition is that we buy a house next to a working ranch that uses dogs to herd cattle. If the ranch owner agreed, we'd send our furry family member next door to work all day, then play at night -- after brushing and, needs be, bathing her. But I have one piece of advice for potential Corgi companions. Corgis are easily led into mischief. So, whatever you do . . .
DON'T LET THEM LISTEN TO THE FAERIES!

#5- they will give you the sad eyes till you give in
#4- they want love and pets, not to mention the occasional snuggles
#3-need to take them out for walks and that could help your health
#2- wonderful partner and friend
AND
#1- Too cute
Get what’s important for you. If you can’t stand a lot of barking or shedding.
Do not get a corgi. My wife and I were thinking about corgis but we do not want dog hair in our food, lol.
Love this!! 🐶❤
I’ve had 5 corgis. And between family members and friends the total is 14. They are smart. Loyal. Great at minding young kids and always watching them. And lots of energy.
They’re loud, obnoxious, bark, shed, herd, stubborn, not good with kids. Ain’t even top 10 smartest breed. But whatever floats your boat.
My corgi is actually my service dog. Somedays I struggle to get out of bed and he always will stay with me and do his job. He's 3 and has been doing this FURever. Corgis are trainable and smart, don't underestimate that.
I just got a corgi as a service dog myself. I've been in a good place for a while but there are times when I'm not working and kids and lady are at work and my mind isn't always the best place to be. We are a week in she really brings a sense of calm and joy to my mornings I don't usually get. And I love having an errand dog that behaves. A few things I want to nip in the bud with her but she is learning/catching on great quick. My new and only friend haha.
They ain’t even top 10smartest dog breed…
I'm getting a corgi soon and I'm naming her mochi. thank you for letting me know this about corgis.
Awe cute I'm getting corgi soon I'm naming her Lofie
I'm hoping for a Corgi soon!
How’s that corgi working out for ya, lol?
@@iishyxvietxboyii1 he’s enjoying dog hair in his soup.
I have 2 corgis. I don't regret it not one bit. About 13 years ago or so my mom called me and said come to where was she was at. I got there she had one of them in her arms. She didn't tell me at the time she already got the female all was left was a male. Brother and sister. I got the male. My stepdad and Mom loved them. Now they both have passed. I have both now. What a pair. I love every minute of it
So you enjoy eating dog hair… lol😂
@@Jonathaneve5 ha you so funny
@@johnhorton9637 hahahahha so it’s true…. 😂
@@Jonathaneve5 hahaha no
@@johnhorton9637 hahaha have fun!!!
My corgi was amazing. He was well mannered. Had bursts of energy but was also a couch potato. He just passed a few days ago due to seizures caused by a brain tumor. He ultimately had a stroke and passed.
Thats so sad.
@@pinkellowablethere’s a lot more sad things going on in the world than a stupid corgi who passed…
Vid:don't get a corgi
Me:I already have one and will probably get another one
I couldn’t agree with you more, my wife and I are thinking about getting another one also. this guy has no business making videos like this.
@@tedk9075 If his videos are monetized, then he absolutely has a business making videos like this.
I'm of two minds on the value of the video. However considering how many people are likely getting pets because they are cute on social media without considering a lot of the facts that go into getting one.....
I'd rather a number of people not get one as otherwise I suspect a lot of the pets end up in households where they end up being poorly tolerated because of their inate drives which the owner's never bothered to research beforehand.
Very same haha
So you enjoy eating dog hair along with your foods… lol😂
If you don't put weight on your corgi's back and don't over-feed it, a corgi can be very safe with its surroundings. Also, its true corgis are active but if you don't have time to walk a corgi then maybe try and get another breed that don't need that much attention. Overall, corgis are a very good breed of dog just make sure you research about them before getting one!
I have a corgi her name is maggie and I'm ngl she is the best thing to ever happened to me dont let these reasons discourage you from getting one
I agree! This idiot Has no business discouraging people from buying any type of breed of dog.
Everything has pros and cons. Research to see what’s right for you.

I've had a corgi and I can say they need work but if you do your job as the owner they are great!
They’re stubborn, loud, obnoxious, yappers, heavy shedder, herd everything, lol. Most people fooled by their cute short legs. They need a lot of work.
We had a pet store corgi for 12.5 years. She was diagnosed with dysplasia during her first vet visit. This little bitch ignored her hips for 11 years until they were too far gone for her to will her way through anymore, and used a wheel cheer for another year and a half. In between, she had zero health problems. These dogs are in charge. Whenever they enter a new environment, they walk in like they own the place, and they will in short order. So smart, alert, and serious, I miss her badly. These are a working breed and need to be stimulated, although they're not hyper by any means. They take themselves very seriously. Great dog for families, as long as young kids are monitored.
As long as you are an active person/family, then you should be okay. If you want a couch potato, find a different breed or get a cat. There are tons of lovely cats just waiting for forever homes. ❤️
Luis. Just got a Corgi. Named him Baymax and he is 12 weeks old. He's amazing.
Wait for the barking and shedding, lol.
@iishyxvietxboyii1 the shedding Is insane. The barking isn't so bad. He's almost 2 now.
@@ticalhezzy1692 yeah, shedding was the main reason why we didn’t get a corgi. My wife had to compromise.
Dont get a corgi!
Me: a gazillion pounds of shed later and one new family member later
we have a corgi and we are not professional trainers but our corgi isn't hard to handle, of course he was a little terror in the puppy stage but now he's more obedient and doesn't try to heard us anymore (All we did was ignore him when he nipped at our ankles) just do basic obedient training and you will be okay, we trained him ourselves because we couldn't afford a real trainer but Corgis learn super fast as long as you do it every day
How’s the barking and dog hair in your food, lol?
@@iishyxvietxboyii1 Neither are a problem! He doesn't really bark only a few alert barks when he hears our neighbor come home but then he's quiet after the neighbor goes inside. and for hair well that's why we vacuum daily and have yet to have his hair in our food lol
@@katielee7364 Wife wanted a corgi but changed our mind due to shedding.
@@iishyxvietxboyii1 yeah if you don't have the patience to deal with it then it would be a problem but having him is worth it to us.
I'd rather have to Vacuum every day then not have him in our lives
Degenerative myelopathy is an absolutely heartbreaking disease, I lost my own passed corgi and heart dog because of it. :(
Not sure if the title is click-bait or honestly trying to get people to consider the breed properly. I've got a Sheltie, and supposedly has a lot of the negative mentioned here. We don't groom every week, or every 2 weeks, and he still looks great. Exception is knots, which grooming weekly will minimize along with general shedding. Get a shed monster tool instead of a furminator, it has curved teeth which glide along the skin with a minor edge on the inside of the curve instead of a straight cutting blade like the furminator.
Most dogs can be trained, but it takes willpower to be consistent to overcome obstinancy. Dogs are social animals, and using 'ignore' can help get them past some bad behaviors as they really, really want to interact with you.
I guess attempting to warn people off at the outset might be a useful 'life hack'.
This is literally one of the most innacurate videos I’ve ever seen lmao corgis are a very healthy breed. They are companion breeds they are breeding but are very well manageable and love to lay by their owners all day. Everything else you named is not exclusive to the corgi breed. They need no extra training or care than another breed. Corgis do not shed excessively. I thought you were supposed to be educated about breeds in this page??
I agree this video is totally
inaccurate!
@@tedk9075agree this video is lame. Corgis are absolutely awesome.
So salty, lol.
I disagree with everything you said. Mine needs training and they shed like huskys. Honestly I do NOT recommend anyone gets a corgi especially if you have young kids. I thought I was getting a companion lap dog and they are the complete opposite of that.
Health issues are more of a problem with bad breeding. From a reputable breeder the corgi is a pretty healthy breed.
We have a corgi/jack russell mix and she's smart as a whip. Great at hunting mice and rats, and is still a couch potato. However, she will give you the sad eyes for trying to leave the house, while eating and paws you for endless attention. Not a huge cuddler but will occasionally hit us up for them. She's also neighborhood watch and loves to supervise the neighbors throwing away their trash and getting their mail. One day, she hopes to catch a squirrel too. She's already nailed mice, rats, groundhogs, and rabbits. Her bucket list is almost complete. She also is in charge of our resident pittie. Yep, you read that right, she's in charge around here. We adore them both.
@lynn6799 Your Corgi/Jack Russell mix sounds like an absolute character! The combination of intelligence, hunting skills, and couch potato tendencies is both adorable and impressive. It's amusing to hear about her supervising the neighbors and being on the lookout for that elusive squirrel. The fact that she's in charge of your resident pittie adds an extra layer of charm to the story. It's clear you have a lively and loving dynamic in your household. Do you have any favorite moments or funny anecdotes that perfectly capture her personality? 🐾💕
My mother owned a corgi, who developed a glandular condition unknown (at least at that time) to the best Vet school in the country. She suffered with the debilitating condition to the end of her very long life.
Sorry! That's sad to hear.
Matching this day b4 getting a corgi 👁👄👁
At least you know what you’re getting in to. 🙂
My daughter owns a Corgi as do I. Nerver had any health problems whatsoever. We had gotten them from a well established breeder in our area and they were certified against any health problems. Our Corgis are well trained, both are in agility classes competing with much larger dogs. Very active, lots of running in the back yard, hiking, playing in the snow, they need excerice rain or shine. They have only eaten raw diets since they were pups;. Both dogs were house trained at 8-1/2 weeks. They have never ruined anything in our homes, even when we both are working. Never been crated inside the home neither. Good dogs, affectionate and loving.
You’re lucky. One of our goldendoodle destroyed our brand new home baseboards, lol. They’re lucky they don’t shed.
they are so sweet with the short legs!!! aweeee
I could give you 5 reasons not to get any breed of dog. Weve had 2 corgi’s and they been great and like any breed of dog they need training but they are loyal and both have loved kids. Most dogs will shed to a certain degree so thats not a problem just to the corgi’s breed.
I couldn’t agree more, people like this knucklehead Chanel be making videos about things they truly don’t know. I can tell by watching this video he drives all this information from a book, not based on his own experience. We love our corgi and I’m probably going to get another one.
Just courrious, how much of the barking are you able to train out?
Everything has pros and cons…get whats “right” for you.
@@tedk9075it’s all subjective. Calm down.
The guy in the channel literally says that there are pros and cons to every dog. If you don't want to deal with shedding, don't get a dog. This is not a video or channel meant to encourage certain breeds over others. This is a video about the CONS of corgis. If you want pros of corgis, look for another video.@@tedk9075
40 plus years of corgis including breading. Have not seen many major health issues. Never seen Spine or hip issues.
Corgis shed. That's an understatement. THEY SHED A LOT. A LOT. A LOT. But I sure do love my two.
@sfjeld77 Ah, the shedding struggle with Corgis is real! Their adorable looks definitely come with a furry price tag. It's great to hear that despite the copious amounts of fur, you still love your two Corgis. Their charming personalities and lovable quirks often make up for the shedding, don't they? Do you have any tips or tricks for managing all that fur? 🐶🐾
Our vacuum does one swipe of the carpet and it's already halfway full lmao
you just learn to love the fur (Or just ban the dog from the bedroom so you have at least one room *Mostly* Free of Corgi glitter)
Sounds like the struggle we have with our GSD. Hair everywhere. A vacuum can’t keep up. I’d love a Roomba, but it would fill too fast.
😘 I ♥️♥️♥️ Corgis..😍
I'm not a dog owner, I have been a cat owner all my life. However I have just met the cutest Corgi puppy at the vet's office...it was love ❤️ at 1st sight! I was told that they are a difficult breed by the Tech My husband recently passed away after 42 years, I'm ❤️ sick. I would like to adapt my 1st dog.i have an old but friendly, mellow cat. She likes my friend's bulldogs.i came here to read up on the breed. I would like to get 1st hand feed back on getting/owning one. I can handle the hair~ my cat has long hair.. Any advice? I'm home all day. I've never trained a dog before.
Our family have had corgis all my life from when I was a kid and to date when I helped financially my parents to afford one. As long as you research the breeder and it's a credible one the health issues should be minimal (it helps alot if they have the health history of the parent dogs). Other than that corgis need alot of exercise to be healthy, they can be very stubborn and they do shed alot (they have two coats of hair, inner and outer layer). We never trained our corgis that much just love and basic discipline and I think they're quite easy to handle. And the next statement is very biased: They are the best breed :D
Do more research before getting a corgi. They’re stubborn, loud, obnoxious, bark a lot, shed, herd everything, etc…
@@HolySmock2They’re far from the best, lol.
2:17 your right, they are actually loaf potatoes
Even Collies can nip and herd tiny kids too(they are herding dogs,NOT sporting or working dogs)and they are also not great family dogs.Even though they love them;they are best with house with older kids.Don't be Lassie craze person!
Mine's 2 yrs. a lot of work but I think it's worth it.
You fogot a one things-Corgis are not small dogs,Even though they 10-12",they surprisely weight 25-35lbs,they should be Medium sized dogs.They are too heavy to carry compared to true small dogs and are too big for size-restricted places.If you want a true small dog that is smart and active,get a Papillon or Mini Schnauzer.
Not a companion breed? Our two corgis never leave our side! You’re nuts! Sassy and Rascal are the loves of our lives. They are loyal devoted intelligent members of our family. And did I mention adorable? There are not any reasons to not get a corgi!
They are specifically Companion Breeds, but that doesn’t mean they don’t like the job.
i have a corgi and a gsd if you want one dont let these reasons get you
You say that pommeranians are not for newbies, but animaltube says that pommeranians are for newbies
@@AnimationByDylan what do you mean with quite strong willed?
Corgi owners have entered the chat. 😂
Interesting, so you have a 1/3 scale German Shepherd.
lol pretty much.
I'd say they have more of the Husky temperament
That’s fair.
Good reasons, but if anything were to happen to my corgi, it would be the last thing I see happen
Best part of the video is the description, skip the video, read the description instead.
My mom and dad had a Corgi wen I wen I was baby
i have a pembroke welsh corgi hes sweet dont let these reasons get oyu can get any dog tou want
You have dog hair in your food?
I dont agree. My corgi very obedient without a leash. Respects limita and is very smart, he does bark a lot. But outside my house.
There are always exceptions.
no offense my guy but the part where they'll run away when their on on a leash is pretty much what most dogs do
ironically my Corgi doesn't run away. we had not even done recall training when his leash popped off and I thought he was going to run away because other dogs I had grown up with would have bolted but he just ran back to me.
No, most companion breeds will stick with you, as Will many herding type dogs.
Something to help with Potato 🥔
If you want a corgi just for your Instagram page you don’t deserve them.
While it's important to emphasize responsible pet ownership, everyone has different motivations for getting a dog. Some people may be drawn to Corgis for their adorable appearance and playful nature, and it's possible they also genuinely love and care for the breed. However, it's crucial to stress that owning a pet goes far beyond social media aesthetics.
Corgis, like all dogs, require time, attention, and proper care. Responsible ownership involves meeting their physical and emotional needs, ensuring a healthy and happy life. If someone is considering getting a Corgi, it's essential to do so with a commitment to providing a loving home and meeting all the responsibilities that come with pet ownership. A dog is a lifelong companion, not just an accessory for social media.
Own a corgi - own a robovac!
Not sure a Roomba could keep up.
@@AnimalFactsours does.
Might have to look into it to keep up with my GSD.
What the fuck. You really should separate pembroke (on the video) and cardigan. If you buy pembroke from good breeder you are pretty well set off. They are working dogs. So if you dont feed it to obesity you're fine. I have second one going, Pippa is now 10 and half. Luka was 13 when cancer got to his mouth.
Thanks for the feedback.
I have a corgi and definitely regretting it. Mine chews/ bites and destroys everything no matter how much time and exercise I give her.
How old is she?
@@AnimalFacts going on 1yr old
Corgis are high on the list for most rehome dogs.
@@Jonathaneve5 I can see why! She has calmed down somewhat but they definitely have some breed behaviors that were shocking to me. To anyone thinking of getting a corgi remember that they are herding dogs and that means fearless, energetic, stubborn, biting, jumping, and barking behavior. They are not everything you see on social media.
The dogs are supposed to be very energetic, however any fit person can can out run the dog, if you take the dog on a long run, the dog will get tired before you.
Never heard so much crap. I have owned cardigan corgis for 35 years. I have never had back problems or expensive vet bills. They are known to have PRA and DM years ago but all breeders test before breeding with results negative. As for running away, they are very easy to train and return on command and are a breed that is happy to please people. Yes can malt as any breed does, usually twice a year have total drop of coat and a once a week brush is all that is needed to keep lose fur under control. They adapt to any lifestyle be on a farm or in a unit. They are very much a lap dog if that is your lifestyle.
Daily walks can be beneficial but not always needed. As just as happy playing fetch with a ball. All puppies can chew on things, but corgis grow out of it quickly with just saying no and don't usually do again. Corgis in Australia can range in price from $3500 to $7000 depending on the breeder.
Wherever this person got his information from, it is incorrect and never owned a corgi
Thank you for sharing your experience with owning Cardigan Corgis for 35 years. It's valuable to hear from someone with such a long history with the breed. It's great to know that your Corgis haven't experienced back problems, and it's commendable that breeders test for genetic conditions like PRA and DM.
It's important to note that individual experiences with dog breeds can vary, and while your experience has been positive, others may have different perspectives.
I have a corgi dont let peolpe stop you from getting one
Nobody is stopping anyone. This video is for informational purposes.
I already have a corgi I just named him belle and he is a male
Lol
Nvm 😭 he ran away just for 2 yrs now…
too bad i getting a corgi when i can
How’s the barking and shedding working out, lol?
You will not regret it!
What’s wrong with corgis outsmarting you some dogs can outsmart peolpe espicatienly the owner
That’s one dumb owner, lol.😂
All that you say……is basically all dogs🙄
I don’t think our Goldendoodles are the same as corgis, lol. They don’t shed at all or herd.
There is no such thing as a reason NOT to get a Corgi, other than not having the time/environment for a dog in general, let alone a Corgi. The majority of "reasons" are true for just about every breed of dog and aren't specific to Corgis.
lol I got a corgi pup for free 😎
6. They’ll chew up your license
7. And your credit card
8. Your slippers too
9. The walls as well
Don't forget the carpet!! Or any boxes laying around, maybe even some of your plants too...
Or the toys you buy them 🤔🧐😉
@@broken_clock_right_twice Yes, however, they will get bored of the toys rather quickly ;)
Any the dog will do that, Einstein. Not just corgis.
lol
All my corgi's are couch potatoes
Maybe the owners are the same?
Like animal facts find you don’t have one then don’t say anything
What breed of dog can I feed cheap garbage dog food too? Where do you get your info from
*to
You fogot Great Dane
Lies. I've had 4 corgis and this is BS.
Thanks for the engagement.
I agree. We have two corgis sassy and rascal. Where one goes so goes the other and where we are they are. I feel sorry for all those people without a corgi. What do think the Queen
Didn’t know something?
Gate keeping people is fun!
Letting people know the cons of owning breeds is humane.
Boooooooooooo
Oh expensive
After knowing that they're expensive, I am out.
They are not $4000, trust me. We bought ours from a reputable breeder and got her for $700. Friends of ours I found them for as low as $400. Don’t let this guys misinformation sway your decision, because he’s an idiot.
You have no idea what you will be missing! They would brighten your life in more ways than you could count
@@veronica73126missing out on excessive barking, shedding, herding??
I love corgis so I dislike
I think everyone likes Corgis. Just not everyone is capable of taking care of a Corgi.
@@AnimalFactsnot everyone. I kinda dislike them.
